What are some preventive measures for a hairdresser?

Design the salon ergonomically: Provide workbenches, reception desks, washbasins (for tasks such as cutting, styling, shampooing, etc) at the right height, and adjustable stools and chairs for sitting. Rearrange the work area so that the task, materials (shampoos, conditioners, dyes etc), equipment (scissors, blow-dryers, etc.) and controls are within easy reach and do not require stretching or twisting.
